If you are worried that the alias isn't being processed at all or that
Stripmime isn't being run, you can always put a '|tee /tmp/worrynot' into
that pipe.
If you get verification that Stripmime is running, but it's just acting
like 'cat', then consider installing 'demime' which is much more flexibile
and capable. I tried both and definitely settled on demime.
